Mike Batty is a freelance photographer who launched Shared Earth Photography in 2008. He is a member of the Bureau of Freelance Photographers and is passionate about capturing a wide variety of photographic subjects.
Mike shoots digitally, using professional Canon camera bodies and lenses to capture images which he has often previsualised before arriving on location. He maximises the potential of having both rural and urban environments on his doorstep by developing a portfolio which contains a broad range of subjects.
Mike has had a passion for wildlife and the outdoors since an early age and this is reflected in his photography. He has been capturing wildlife images for the past six years and has built up an extensive portfolio during this time. Mike strives to produce wildlife images which highlight the beauty and fragility of the natural world. In order to do this, he creates minimal disturbance on location and treats his subjects with the greatest respect.
Having started out mainly as a naturalist photographer, Mike now captures a wide variety of subjects from portraits to cityscapes. Mike is therefore available for various photographic jobs such as events, commissions, article writing, and print sales. Whatever the occasion, Mike prides himself on his attention to detail, conscientious attitude, and his dedication to meeting his clients' needs.
Mike lives near the town of Macclesfield in Cheshire, UK.
